The Sound Originals team were fantastic people to work with, not only due to their professionalism, but also because they were great people to have around. They were extremely comfortable and friendly while working with us and taking photos. Even when it came down to the dogs, 2 of which were panicking because they are rescues and being around so many people stressed them out, this didn't even phase the Sound Originals team which impressed me the most. Their professionalism with their gear was truly amazing to see (we have some professional photographers in our family who were commenting on this too), you could tell they knew how to handle their equipment. One thing that I loved was that they took the time to create cute photogenic moments to capture with the camera that would normally be over so fast, you would probably miss it. Every photo, from the goofy spur of the moment reactions - to the posed adorable moments, came out beautifully. Thank you Sound Originals for working with us! We couldn't have asked for better photographers.

Enea and Hayley are truly exceptional. From our engagement shoot to the big day, they went above and beyond to capture every moment with heart, artistry, and professionalism. Enea photographed our wedding while Hayley worked her magic on video—and together, they delivered memories we will treasure forever. Our photos are absolutely stunning, and the video trailer full ceremony edit brought us to tears (in the best way!). They took the time to get to know us, making everything feel personal and natural. Not only are they incredibly talented and creative, but they’re also fun, dependable, and a joy to be around. They brought a calming energy, kept things on schedule, and even added a drone to the mix—giving us breathtaking aerial shots we didn’t even know we needed! They both have such a natural eye for detail and storytelling. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Truly, we cannot recommend Enea and Hayley enough. If you’re lucky enough to have the chance to work with them, do it. You’ll be so glad you did.

Hey, I'm so glad you're here! My name is Heather and I live in beautiful Foresthill, CA. I love any and all hard seltzers, my Great Dane Fritz, and using my camera to capture all the feels. About my business? Well I'm basically a professional wedding crasher, so you know you will always have fun with me! Oh and I've pretty much cried at every wedding I've ever been to...and yours is no exception. Let's be friends!

Heather was wonderful to work with! We are the awkward type in front of a camera, but working with Heather made everything seem so stress-free during our wedding planning and photo sessions. Our engagement photo session was fun and care-free and we unbeknownst to all of us, she actually ended up taking beautiful photos of our beautiful rabbit, Trixie before she passed on the following month. Something that we truly appreciated and will never forget. For our wedding, Heather was very detailed and gave us a run down of what to expect for the photos. Nothing was hidden and she was up front about it all and asked if we wanted to add anything as well. Although Mother Nature had other plans for the day, we were still able to get the majority of our photos done. She even snuck in polaroid photos that were just too adorable - And I have no idea when she even took them! We received our wedding photos back and everyone absolutely loves them. I just love her style. While there are some photographers who do a large amount of filter/presets (no shade to those who do), there's just something about Heather's style of being able to keep it clean and natural that I just love! With Mother Nature having other plans with making it a misty ceremony and a downpour reception, we did miss out on doing a handful of photos of cocktail hour. Because of that, Heather was quick to offer us a bridal session to take some additional photos to complete our wedding. Instead of returning to the venue, we actually decided to relocate to Fort Bragg and take photos at the Mendocino Garden. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous with the oceanic background and the dahlias that she chose to work with. She made everything seem so light-hearted and there was so much laughter with each session. Thank you Heather for everything you did throughout our wedding planning and so much more. You've captured so many wonderful moments and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

I’ve had a camera in my hand since I can remember. On family vacations each of us had a camera and would come back with several rolls of film. It was great to see different perspectives of the same place. My photos became more refined throughout my childhood as I graduated to my stepdad’s Minolta film SLR. In college I dedicated myself to photography professionally with a degree in photojournalism, then found my calling with a wedding studio at 19.

Nicky Byrnes Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the moment we connected with Nicky, her communication style was open, easy, and she was quick to respond to all of our questions. Her work is genuine, memorable, and absolutely beautiful. We first met Nicky while we were travel nursing in Tahoe, where she took our engagement photos. We were so impressed with her talent that we knew we had to have her capture our wedding day as well. On the big day, Nicky truly went above and beyond, traveling all the way to Alabama to photograph our celebration. Her work was phenomenal - she really captured the energy and joy of the party. I can't recommend Nicky Byrnes Photography enough!

I have always had a passion for photography and once I picked up a camera, it was all over. I was raised from a big family and my kids are my world! Born and raised in the Bay Area, I have a special love for being back there. I consider myself very outgoing and will always try and make you laugh and feel comfortable by being a huge dork. I think that is one of the biggest compliments I get is that my clients always feel relaxed and at ease and I love hearing that. Not to mention becoming friends with my clients which is an added bonus! ​

Jeff was amazing! He made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and went above and beyond to “get the shot!” He has an amazing eye for detail, angle and creative shots I never would have thought of. We had a ton of fun with him getting some epic shots but also some silly ones too! I will be using him as our family photographer from here on out!

You know that friend who always gets your good angles? Brings her digital camera to every event, and when it's photo time she'll fix your hair, tuck in the tag that's sticking out, move your arm just so, then pull out a flash you didn't even know she had for better lighting. That's me. I'll get shot that'll make you fall in love with you again.

Working with Ela for our Save the Date session was a wonderful experience from start to finish. She has an incredible eye for detail and guided me and my fiancé through poses in a way that felt entirely natural and effortless. Not only is the final gallery breathtaking, but Ela was professional, warm, and exceptionally talented throughout the shoot.

I capture your wedding with energy, intention, and an eye for moments that matter most. My couples get more than beautiful photos – they get someone who keeps things organized, brings a fun and calming presence, and makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The result is timeless images that feel as genuine as your love story.

I’ve had my photos taken by Quentin multiple times, and every single experience has been amazing. He has this incredible ability to make you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, even if you’re someone who normally hates having your picture taken. He gives just enough direction without making anything feel forced, and somehow always captures the most genuine moments. When I got my gallery back, I was honestly blown away. The photos felt like me natural, flattering and full of personality. Beyond his talent, he’s simply a great person to work with professional, fun, patient, and someone who truly cares about his clients. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for beautiful photos and an even better experience.

I am really interested in other people. I like to find out about you. I believe we all have value, and everybody deserves to be happy. Sour Pusses are quite the bummer, and seriousness is overrated. I really believe there should be very little reason for people to not get along. EVERYONE is welcome. I LOVE nostalgia, and having my work appreciated enough to be on your walls is the best feeling. I roast my own coffee, I am a friek for Legos, old black and white movies, the ocean, the forest, the jungle, and chatting with people.

It was serendipitous that I came across Daniel's instagram randomly in the early stages of wedding planning, and the most recent photos happened to be from the venue we'd chosen so it was clear he knew the venue and that his pictures were magical. Our wedding planners were thrilled that we had found him as they have all worked together and have a great working relationship. Daniel is exuberant and brings such authentic enthusiasm to his work. He was super helpful in the day of planning, and on the day managed our timeline with great efficiency and professionalism. All of our guests were highly impressed at his commitment to getting every shot both posed and candid of us, our families, and portraits of our guests. My husband's most important moment to capture was sunset and our sunset photos are beyond stunning. We had a really positive experience working with Daniel as a person and photographer and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to capture a wedding or any special event.

Lisa Richmond is a phenomenally talented photographer. Lisa is an artist at heart and her attention to detail in her work shows her tremendous talent. She takes a lot of time to get to know her clients before the day of the wedding, so all parties are comfortable in sharing such intimate moments together in front of the camera. She has a great eye for capturing key family members important to the wedding couple, along with great timing of moments such as the 'first look' and photographing unforgettable facial expressions. Throughout the wedding day, she is silently present capturing moments on camera, allowing these to organically occur, and not be forced. Within her photographs she transforms the moments to tell a story of your wedding day, and in result, you are left with an album of beautifully artistic photographs eliciting wonderful memories and a new friend in Lisa!

If you’ve landed here, my guess is you want the perfect balance. Someone who will give you direction during your couple’s portraits, while avoiding making you feel like you’re on the MET gala red carpet during your ceremony. I’m here to help you feel at ease, to make jokes, to reassure you everything and nothing matters all in the same breath. I take years of stealthy concert photography skills and apply that to documenting the candid familial embrace. The wild shirtless last dance of the evening. The moment when you two look at each other after all the speeches are done, and you realize how wonderful it is to be showered with so much love.

Amazing photos are just the beginning. Amazing communication, endless flexibility, and a work ethic that doesn’t quit; all wrapped up in someone who’s genuinely fun to be around. She made us feel safe and gave us the space to just be ourselves, then somehow captured every best moment… and then some. Her partner Justin was right there with her every step of the way, and the two of them made an incredible team. Coming from a groom who doesn’t even like having his picture taken ; you will not regret booking Jessie. 10/10. Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts.

Throughout the entire process they had amazing communication, they were super organized and didn’t let the weather affect their work either! I would choose them to photograph other important milestones over and over again.

Kimmi did a great job helping me to find the perfect scenic spot for a proposal at Lake Tahoe, and the pictures from the photoshoot turned out amazing.
